Mauritania diaspora in the Americas

The UN does not publish a precise figure for people from Mauritania in the Americas. Still, the diaspora gathers here too, and Compatri follows its communities city by city.

No community for people from Mauritania exists in the Americas on Compatri yet. However, one first member is enough to open one in their city.

As soon as a community starts, its meetups show up on the events page, with the date, the venue and the number of attendees.

There, the largest diasporas also come from India, China, the Philippines, Vietnam, and the United Kingdom, according to the UN. Each one has its own page on Compatri, with its cities and meetups.

Compatri brings diasporas together where they live. First, you choose the community of your city. Then you discover what its members organise: meals, parties, afterworks or mutual aid. Finally, you message compatriots who share your interests.

You can also host your own meetup: a meal, an outing or a party. It then appears to members of your city, and you follow sign-ups from your account.

Your exact location never appears: other members only see an approximate area. In addition, joining a community and attending events costs nothing.

Every November 28, the national day brings the Mauritania diaspora together. Locally too, communities organise concerts, meals and gatherings.

Elsewhere, the Mauritania diaspora also lives in Senegal, Mali, and the Gambia. Each country has its own page, with its cities and meetups.
